System for monitoring hydraulic pump systems in forming technology

Purpose and goal

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The purpose of the project is to develop a system for predictive maintenance for servo presses, which means that hydraulic pumps are only replaced if a monitoring system predicts a risk of failure. The goal is a developed system for condition monitoring (online) that can provide knowledge-based support where intelligent monitoring of machine components is enabled through sensor data and technology-specific process and machine data.

Expected effects and result

** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The effect of the developed monitoring system will lead to more sustainable production because components and systems can be used to their maximum lifespan. Consequently, waste of available resources is reduced. The project´s strategic relevance lies in its potential to position Sweden as a global leader in smart manufacturing solutions, which in the long run will strengthen the industry´s competitiveness.

Planned approach and implementation

(1) Identification and determination of measurable indicators of pump wear. (2) Sensor system for inline condition monitoring of the hydraulic pump system of press drives. (3) Algorithms for the structuring of heterogeneous data. (4) Evaluation & diagnostic algorithms for automated detection of the wear condition and critical operating conditions during press operation. (5) System for the integration of the monitoring system into existing plant technology and its commissioning.
